About Dr. Vivek Barun

Dr. Vivek Barun is a Senior Consultant in Neurology at Artemis Hospitals, Gurugram, with over nine years of focused clinical experience. He is known for his expertise in epilepsy — including complex, drug-resistant cases — as well as stroke care, Parkinson's disease, and dementia. Patients and families often describe him as someone who takes the time to explain a difficult diagnosis in plain language, making an overwhelming situation feel manageable.

Dr. Barun's training reflects both depth and breadth. He completed his MBBS at VMMC & Safdarjung Hospital, New Delhi, followed by his MD in Medicine from PGIMER & RML Hospital and his DM in Neurology from IHBAS, Delhi. He then pursued a dedicated Postdoctoral Fellowship in Epilepsy at the Nizam's Institute of Medical Sciences (NIMS), Hyderabad, where he built advanced skills in managing epilepsy across both pediatric and adult patients. He has also completed the Advanced Management of Neurological Diseases program at Harvard Medical School, and holds dual certification from the International League Against Epilepsy at both Entry and Proficiency levels.

What sets Dr. Barun apart is his commitment to staying current. Specialized training in Video EEG, Stroke Management, and Neurophysiology keeps his clinical toolkit sharp and evidence-based. Whether a patient comes in with a first-time seizure, chronic migraines, or a complex movement disorder like dystonia, he approaches each case methodically — and compassionately.

For international patients traveling to India for neurological care, Dr. Barun offers the reassurance of internationally recognized training, experience with a wide range of conditions, and a communication style that puts families at ease. Artemis Hospitals, Gurugram, is well-equipped with advanced neurological diagnostics and a multidisciplinary team, making it a trusted destination for patients from across South Asia, the Middle East, and Africa.
